Mission Control Visual Effects
Role: Visual Effects, Motion Design, Screen Compositing
Overview
Mission Control is an indie short combining an 80’s sci-fi aesthetic with a dash of quirkiness and time travel. This project and expanded my portfolio into cinematic visual effects and earned an IMDB credit.
Approach
The story re-imagined a set from a T-Mobile spot and leaned heavily on VFX, which I owned. Every on-screen display was tracked, replaced, animated, and composited in post. Working with a team of VFX artists meant I needed to facilitate collaboration so shots were treated cohesively. I also designed and built a special time travel scene as a capstone to the story arc.
Impact
- Built collaborative workflows between post-production editors, designers, art directors, and other VFX artists
- Delivered cohesive VFX for a short showcased at indie film festivals
- Earned industry recognition via IMDB
